Abstract

A system for transforming the movements of at least one joint of a user into control signals for a computer. The system includes a sleeve for putting on over the joint and a movement sensor fixed to the sleeve for the sensor to be placed and held in the hollow of the joint. The sensor is an on/off sensor that is directly subject to the movements of the sleeve in the hollow of the joint.
